All of me, why not take all of me?
Can't you see, I'm no good without you?
Take my lips, I want to lose them
Take my arms, I'll never use them
Your goodbye left me with eyes that cry
How could I, go on, dear, without you?
You took the part that once was my heart
So why not take all of me?

Embrace me, my sweet embraceable you
Embrace me, you irreplaceable you
Just one look at you
My heart grew tipsy in me
You and you alone
Bring out the Gypsy in me
I love all the many charms about you
Above all, I want my arms about you
Don't be a naughty baby,,
Come to mama, come to mama do
My sweet embraceable you
I love all the many charms about you
Above all, I want my arms about you
Don't be a naughty baby,,
Come to mama, come to mama do
My sweet embraceable you
My sweet embraceable you

Je n'avais jamais ôté mon chapeau
Devant personne
Maintenant je rampe et je fais le beau
Quand elle me sonne
J'étais chien méchant, elle me fait manger
Dans sa menotte
J'avais des dents d'loup, je les ai changées
Pour des quenottes
Je m'suis fait tout petit devant une poupée
Qui ferme les yeux quand on la couche
Je m'suis fait tout petit devant une poupée
Qui fait "Maman" quand on la touche
J'étais dur à cuire, elle m'a converti
La fine mouche
Et je suis tombé tout chaud, tout rôti
Contre sa bouche
Qui a des dents de lait quand elle sourit
Quand elle chante
Et des dents de loup quand elle est furie
Qu'elle est méchiante
Je m'suis fait tout petit devant une poupée
Qui ferme les yeux quand on la couche
Je m'suis fait tout petit devant une poupée
Qui fait "Maman" quand on la touche
Tous les somnambules
Tous les mages m'ont dit sans malice
Qu'en ses bras en croix
Je subirais mon dernier supplice
Il en est de pires il en est d'meilleures
Mais à tout prendre
Qu'on se pende ici, qu'on se pende ailleurs
S'il faut se pendre
Je m'suis fait tout petit devant une poupée
Qui ferme les yeux quand on la touche
Je m'suis fait tout petit devant une poupée
Qui fait "Maman" quand on la touche

Bei Mir Bist Du Schön:
Of all the boys I've known, and I've known some
Until I first met you, I was lonesome
And when you came in sight, dear, my heart grew light
And this old world seemed new to me
You're really swell, I have to admit you
Deserve expressions that really fit you
And so I've racked my brain, hoping to explain
All the things that you do to me
Bei mir bist du schön, please let me explain
Bei mir bist du schön means you're grand
Bei mir bist du schön, again I'll explain
It means you're the fairest in the land
I could say "bella, bella", even "sehr wunderbar"
Each language only helps me tell you how grand you are
I've tried to explain, bei mir bist du schön
So kiss me and say you understand
I could say "bella, bella", even "sehr wunderbar"
Each language only helps me tell you how grand you are
I've tried to explain, bei mir bist du schön
So kiss me and say you understand
Puttin' On The Ritz:
If you're blue, and you don't know where to go to
Why don't you go where fashion sits?
Puttin' on the ritz
Different types of wear a day coat, pants with stripes and cutaway coat
Perfect fits,
Puttin' on the ritz
Dressed up like a million-dollar trooper
Trying hard to look like Gary Cooper (super-duper)
Come, let's mix where Rockefellers walk with sticks or umbrellas in their mitts
Puttin' on the ritz
If you're blue, and you don't know where to go to
Why don't you go where fashion sits? Puttin' on the ritz
Different types of wear a day coat, pants with stripes and cutaway coat
Perfect fits,
Puttin' on the ritz
Dressed up like a million-dollar trooper
Trying hard to look like Gary Cooper (super-duper)
Come, let's mix where Rockefellers walk with sticks or umbrellas in their mitts
Puttin' on the ritz
Puttin' on the ritz,
Puttin' on the ritz

Ménilmontant, mais oui madame
C'est là que j'ai laissé mon cœur
C'est là que je viens retrouver mon âme
Toute ma flamme
Tout mon bonheur
Quand je revois ma petite église
Où les mariages allaient gaiement
Quand je revois ma vieille maison grise
Où même la brise
Parle d'antan
Elles me racontent
Comme autrefois
De jolis contes
Beaux jours passés je vous revois
Un rendez-vous
Une musique
Des yeux rêveurs tout un roman
Tout un roman d'amour poétique et pathétique
Ménilmontant
Ménilmontant, mais oui madame
C'est là que j'ai laissé mon cœur
C'est là que je viens retrouver mon âme
Toute ma flamme
Tout mon bonheur
Quand je revois ma petite gare
Où chaque train passait joyeux
J'entends encore dans le tintamarre
Des mots bizarres, des mots d'adieux
Chuis pas poète
Mais chuis ému
Et dans ma tête
Y a des souvenirs jamais perdus
Un soir d'hiver
Une musique
Des yeux très doux
Les tiens, me manquent
Tout un roman
D'amour poétique
Et pathétique
Ménilmontant

Teach Me Tonight

Did you say I've got a lot to learn?
Well, don't think, I'm tryin' not to learn
Since this is the perfect spot to learn
Oh, teach me tonight
Start with the A B C of it
Roll right down to the X Y Z of it
Help me solve the mystery of it
Teach me tonight
The sky's a black board
High above you
If a shooting star goes by
I'll use that star to write I love you
A thousand times across the sky
One thing isn't very clear, my love
Should the teacher stand so near, my love?
Graduation's almost here, my love
Teach me tonight
The sky's a black board
High above you
If a shooting star goes by
I'll use that star to write I love you
A thousand times across the sky
One thing isn't very clear, my love
Should the teacher stand so near, my love?
Graduation's almost here, my love
Teach me tonight
Did you say to kiss you?
Well alright,
Teach me tonight

Take a look at me, tell me, can't you see,
I'm right in my cup,
I'm not myself tonight;
It's an awful curse when you have to nurse
A pair of sore pups,
Otherwise, everything's all right.
All dressed up, marcel and everything,
All dressed up, all set to have a fling,
Here am I, breakin' in a pair of shoes.
Got the date with someone I adore,
Now I'm late; I'll bet he's good and sore,
I could cry, breakin' in a new pair of shoes.
Some fine band will soon be deliverin', givin' out music that's hot,
Should I dance? Take a chance?
Ouch, my tootsies!
I don't know, feet may be breaking down, even so,
I've got to go to town,
Here I go, breakin' in a pair of shoes!

I Wish You Love

I wish you bluebirds in the spring
To give your heart a song to sing
And then a kiss but more than this
I wish you love
And in July, a lemonade
To cool you in some leafy glade
I wish you health and more than wealth
I wish you love
My breaking heart and I agree
That you and I could never be
So with my best, my very best
I set you free
I wish you shelter from the storm
A cozy fire to keep you warm
But most of all, when snowflakes fall
I wish you love

C'est Magnifique
03:24

When love comes in and takes you for a spin,
Oo la la la, c'est magnifique.
When every night, your loved one holds you tight,
Oo la la la, c'est magnifique.
But when one day, your loved one drifts away,
Oo la la la, it is so tragique.
But when once more he whispers
"Je t'adore", c'est magnifique!

Please, don't talk about me when I'm gone
Oh, honey, though our friendship ceases from now on
And, listen, if you can't say anything real nice
It's better not to talk at all is my advice
We're parting--you go your way, I'll go mine
It's best that we do
Here's a kiss; I hope that this brings lots of luck to you
Oh, makes no difference how I carry on
Remember, please, don't talk about me when I'm gone
We're parting--you go your way, I'll go mine
It's best that we do
Here's a kiss; I hope that this brings lots of luck to you
Makes no difference how I carry on
Remember, please, don't talk about me
Please, don't talk about me
Please, don't talk about me when I'm gone
